Tomorrow two weeks post op sleeve and hiatal hernia repair. My left abdomen is still swollen near one of the seven incisions, but it isn't red or infected. It is still painful to stand or walk for more than, say, 10 minutes. I don't know when I will be able to wear pants or anything around my waist. I don't work, but know I wouldn't be able to go back to work yet. Just starting to feel my strength back.... still taking a nap every afternoon.

Are you able to put unflavored Protein powder in the Tomato Soup? Tomato Soup sounds good. What brand are you using?

I was sleeved the same day as you, and am having the exact same issue. The taste even wakes me up at night! It's gross. Just on Protein Shakes and Water. In desperation I took a tiny bite of some dentyne hoping the strong minty taste would help which it did.

What was the biggest surprise for you at or after surgery? What do you wish you had known?

That at two weeks post op my left abdomen is still swollen and painful to stand for more than 15 minutes or so. No idea when I will be able to wear pants or anything around my waist. Also hiatal hernia repair done. Just getting strength back, but am certain that if I did work, I would not be able to go back yet. Also wish I had known my blood pressure which was previously high and on meds would drop the week after surgery to 80/60 (assuming due to no salts in one week diet of 50 percent juice 50 percent Water mix.). Also wish I had known it is common to run a low grade fever the day after surgery..... that way I wouldn't have worried something was going wrong.
